Java and MS Word

I have to write some reports in Word from my java program. What is the easiest way to 'connect' to word and create the document. The reason I want Word is becuase of my format requirements. Thanks in advanced-Daniel

The apache POI library will read and write word documents. You might also want to consider using the PDF route (check out www.sourceforge.net for a couple of packages).

The best route IMO would be to not use Word, but a more open format such as HTML, RTF or PDF.You can get Word APIs for Java, POI being one: http://schmidt.devlib.org/java/libraries-word.html

if I want all my reports to have exactly the same format, would it be easier to use XML, HTML, RTF, PDF, DOC?
